St Augustine’s College enters its final game of the regular Aaron Payne Cup season locked in a three-way battle for the last remaining finals spot.

It would take a mathematical miracle for Iggy Park to drop out of a top-four position, while undefeated frontrunners Kirwan SHS and St Patrick’s College, Mackay, have both locked up a finals berth.

St Augustine’s has the bye in round 7, meaning a loss to Ignatius Park on Wednesday would open the door for either Holy Spirit or Mackay SHS to sneak into the finals picture.

Iggy Park is set for a blockbuster meeting with the Kirwan Bears in round 7, with the August 7 fixture potentially deciding which school will finish in first place.

Ignatius Park coach Will Jack said his side would relish the opportunity to play two high-quality opponents across the final fortnight of the regular season.

“We want to keep improving and winning footy games, that’s always the goal this time of year: to keep getting better,” Jack said.

“They’re a quality side, so it’ll be a good hitout for us heading into the back end of the season.

“It works well for us to get a bit battle-hardened heading into finals footy. Obviously there are two pretty tough hit-outs to finish, two really dominant forward packs, which we’ll have to be up for physically.

“It’ll be a good challenge for the boys, and we’re looking forward to it.”
